Companies can now deploy small-scale waste heat-to-power units that fit within their current energy setups, making it possible to recover thermal energy even from medium- and low-temperature sources. Hybrid energy systems that combine waste heat recovery with other energy sources are also gaining traction.
Waste heat recovery for turbine-powered generators is a key strategy for improving energy efficiency and reducing emissions. One common method is the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), which uses an organic working fluid with a low boiling point to convert waste heat into mechanical energy, driving a generator.
In these sectors, continuous high-temperature operations generate significant waste heat, which can be captured and converted into valuable electrical energy. Even data centers, though operating at lower temperatures, are exploring ways to integrate waste heat recovery into district heating and power generation systems.
Conclusions In this paper, an innovative surface evaporation-based cooling technique was introduced for thermoelectric waste heat recovery power generators. A specific ultrathin membrane with hydrophilic properties on one side was employed to maintain a continuous wet condition on the cold side of the thermoelectric generator.
